Regional Cases Today



Cases show up or down on yesterday^ and the v number is versus 7 days ago.



SOUTH

East UP 14to 198 v189

London UP 44 to 355 v 357

South East UP 32 to 197 v 163

South West UP 23 to 86 v 83 - Very little change in these regions







MIDLANDS

East UP 9 to 166 v 139

West DOWN 30 to 143 v 146 - Also little week to week changes




NORTH

North East DOWN 16 to 61 v 74 - alone in the north the NE is not struggling.


Yorkshire UP 63 to 357 v 291 - up week to week but still well behind NW




NORTH WEST DOWN 146 to 540 v 400 - Highest region by a long way still and big increase on last week.



GREATER MANCHESTER

Down 114 to 367 - most of the NW fall today which is good, Week to week up 105. Also most of the NW weekly rise.
 
Greater Manchester Cases


367 cases today - down from 481.



Bolton - fell by 94 to 186 Pop score rise just today was 65. Up 51 wk to wk. Will enter the 10,000 Pop Score club with a similar score tomorrow.



Manchester down 36 to 41. Up 6 on last week.

Wigan also up 8 on 31 - which is up 13 wk to wk. Neighbour of Bolton. Maybe warning signs as it soared last time Bolton went way up in August.

Rochdale up 12 on 24 - which is down 1 week to week.

Trafford up 7 at 24 - which is up 14 wk to wk.

Bury down 8 to 20. Up 2 wk to wk. These numbers in the 20s and 30s starting to come back to GM more frequently than we want to see.

Salford up by 4 to 19 which is up 13 on last week.



So just three boroughs in single numbers today:


Stockport up 3 on 9 which is down 6 on last week.

Oldham down by 2 to 8 - which is up 4 wk to wk.



But back at the top of the pile after yesterdays blip


Tameside down by 8 to 5 which is down 11 wk to wk.
 
GM Weekly Pop Data after today:~

Borough / Pop Today / 7 days ago / up or down wk to wk/ Testing is % of local population who have tested positive for Covid over past year.

As ever with Pop going up is bad, going down good - the higher the number the better or worse depending on direction moving. The Pop is total cases in past week versus 100,000 POPulation to even out the comparison versus size and expected cases based on numbers living there.



Bolton 405 / 282 / UP 123 Testing positive 9.9%

Bury 50 / 31 / UP 19 Testing positive 9.1%

Manchester 47 / 47 / LEVEL Testing positive 9.7%

Trafford 44 / 31/ UP 13 Testing positive 7.1 %

Rochdale 39 / 45 / DOWN 6 Testing positive 9.7%

Wigan 32 / 36 / DOWN 4 Testing positive 8.9%

Salford 22 / 28 / DOWN 6 Testing positive 9.1%

Oldham 20 / 20 LEVEL Testing positive 9.8%

Tameside 15 / 37 DOWN 22 Testing positive 8.2

Stockport 12 / 37 / DOWN 25 Testing positive 7.2%


This table gets more extraordinary every day. Bolton now over 400 and 355 Pop Score Points ahead of everyone else.

Though Bury have come from best in GM to closest challengers and need watching carefully. But whilst number are on the up in a few places at the moment Bolton is increasing the gap every day, We want to see it fall but because cases there fall not rise in the pack below.

Stockport are now at their lowest numbers since last Summer. Tameside too doing very well.
 
Greater Manchester

Weekly total cases:-


Bolton top 1100 weekly cases - more than 4 times Manchester which has a much bigger population remember - and at least 11 times (indeed over 30 times the two best!) all the other boroughs - but that gulf is encouraging as it is growing wider daily and not spreading much as yet elsewhere.

Stockport had another very good day but Tameside did better and along with Oldham these three are well ahead of the rest. Wigan and Trafford slipped back over 100. Bury not far off doing so


Tameside 32, Stockport 35, Oldham 49, Salford 71, Rochdale 86, Bury 96, Wigan 105, Trafford 105, Manchester 262, Bolton 1164

The level of testing in Bolton must be much higher than the rest of N West and England?
 
From Sunday on UK will be again on Germany's red list for virus variants. Reason is the Indian variant and Germany's lower vaccination ratio compared to UK's.

Incoming travel restricted to German citizens or residents. Obligatory 2-week quarantine for anybody, not reducible by negative test.

(No idea what that means for German footballers in Low's EURO squad.)

How do you bring it forward. Mine is due 1 June, soon enough, but I was invited to get it early.

After you type in NHS number, D.O.B. and booking reference it just brings up the current booking with no option to book a new, earlier date.

Not too worries, it's only 10 days away, but wondered what the process was.

NB There's an option to cancel and rebook but I don't want to press that button unless I know there actually is an earlier appointment available !
 
Providing vaccination rates in the young hold up, 30 days at 250k 1st doses >>>> 7.5m doses and 45m 1st doses and 2/3rds of the population vaccinated by 21st June.

That sounds like a plan. Hopefully enough to hold growth of latest variant in check.

Got my results back from my antibody test which test for both antibodies from the virus(natural infection) and antibodies to the spike protein(vaccine). I'm immune supressed so wasn't expecting much but the results came back as >2500u/ml which is the highest level in the table. Really happy with that obviously.

Great news for you, I know you were seriously worried a few weeks ago, must be such a relief, enjoy the summer (and City of course).

My 2nd appointment was also on the 1st June. Not long to wait but this week I received a text invite and I booked for tomorrow (Sunday) so effectively brought it forward by a week. I don't know what happens with the later appointment. I was going to ask tomorrow. My text came on Monday or Tuesday this week. Sunday was the earliest I could book for so it might not make much difference to you if you get a text.

That reminded me, off many years ago. I was at the doctors, no idea why now, and it was new lady doctor. Half way through our conversation, she looked at me and said do you still drink alot. With a quizzical look on my face i said no i have never drank alot. She looked at my notes and said. Oh right its just that it says here you drink up tp 15 pints a week. Wishing that was all i drank, i just said yeah ok i still drink too much.

An old mate, many years ago went to the quacks, he was asked how much he drank:

About 80 pints a week he said

the Doctor

18 pints, that's far too much

No, I said 80

Doctor said it was the most he'd ever heard someone admit to drinking, my mate told him he wasn't even the biggest drinker in his group of friends.

He's dead now, my mate, not the Doctor.
 
How did you book an earlier appointment, @Marvin ?

On Your appointments - Book a coronavirus vaccination - NHS (www.nhs.uk) Once you've entered your details and the website brings up your existing 2nd appointment, it looks like you have to cancel your existing appointment first by clicking the button (below)

and then take a risk there's no earlier appointment. I can't see a way you book a new, earlier appointment without cancelling the current one which seems a risk !
 
54, got my second on Monday which is just over the new 8 weeks gap.
